摘要

A method and apparatus for forming a coating on a sputter chamber workpiece. The apparatus generally includes a sputter chamber having at least one workpiece. The at least one workpiece generally includes one or more trenches formed therein, the trenches being configured to define an arc spray coating region. The method generally includes forming one or more trenches in the workpiece, the trenches defining a coating region and applying a metal coating to the coating region by arc spraying.
